    First edition of Crichton's compelling page-turner. Octavo, original half cloth. Signed by dust jacket designer Chip Kidd with an original drawing of his design for Crichton's The Lost World on the dedication page and signed on the rear panel of the dust jacket. American graphic designer Chip Kidd first joined the Knopf design team in 1986, when he was hired as a junior assistant. Turning out jacket designs at an average of 75 covers a year, he has designed dust jackets for books by Cormac McCarthy, Haruki Murakami, Frank Miller, Charles Schulz, David Sedaris, and John Updike. He is perhaps best known for the dust jacket design for Crichton's Jurassic Park, which remains one of the most recognizable and iconic dust jacket designs of all time and inspired the branding for Steven Spielberg’s 1993 Academy Award-winning film adaptation and the subsequent multimedia franchise. Fine in a fine dust jacket. Jacket design by Chip Kidd.
